The BPM Sync button needs to be turned on in order to synchronise the loops to the tempo of the current project. To stop playback, just press the space bar or click the ‘Play selected clip’ button. Next to the fader is an icon for Looped Preview when this is engaged, the loop will play back continuously. Holding down Shift while using the mouse wheel gives you a finer adjustment of the fader. Left-click and drag to adjust the volume, or use your mouse wheel to make adjustments. To the right of the padlock is a horizontal fader for adjusting the playback volume. When this padlock is enabled, any loop you click on will be auditioned automatically, with no need to press the play button (see main screen above). To the right of it is a ‘Play selected clip’ button, and next to that is a padlock Autoplay icon. File Manager SettingsĪt the top left of the File Manager is a text input box, where you can search for loops by name. If you have loops located on other hard drives, navigate to their locations and save them as favourites using the same method. Click OK, and now this destination will be saved as a favourite. A dialogue will pop up, prefilled as ‘_Sounds’. On import, loops can optionally be copied to the project folder and converted to WAV format.īefore you carry on, it’s best to save the root folder destination, so go to the top right of the file browser, click on the small downward arrow and choose ‘Add current folder as favourite’. Each genre has its own folder which is labelled with the original tempo in bpm. This content consists of drums, percussion, effects loops and various instruments, divided into a wide selection of genres (I counted 26), which include two-step, ’60s soul, ’70s funk, ambient, reggae and chillout. Double-click on this, and it will take you directly to the loop content which was installed with the program. You’ll see there an icon named Sounds, which is a link to the Magix sample content. When you open the Manager, the file path should default to Documents / MAGIX / Samplitude Pro X2. Alternatively, you can open the File Manager from the same menu by choosing Manager / File Manager, or operating the default shortcut of Ctrl+Shift+B. If the Docker is not showing, make sure Manager/docker is ticked in the View menu.

To open the file browser, click on the Files tab to open the File Manager from the Docker. Loops are imported into a Samplitude Pro X2 project from the file browser.
